Behind The Sun: The Official RHCP Thread.

[VinylGuy]

oh i have more

behind the sun, taste the pain, knock me down, fight like a brave, funky crime, me and my friends and freaky styley are all great

[bart]

Show me your soul is good too. Knock Me Down is one of those songs that sounds better in my head, always a little disappointed at the actual song.

Under the Bridge is obviously played to death but it’s one of my favorite JF parts

[bart]

Sikamikanico is prob their best b side, although I can’t listen to it without thinking about the Super Rope dispenser in Garth’s car

[VinylGuy]

It true that we are burnt with Under The Bridge, Californication or Otherside because otherwise those are great songs.

[Ello Sailor]

Otherside never gets old for me. It's Frusciante's backing vocals. Total earworm.

[Jorge]

I give this band a lot of shit but I do like some of their songs, like "Parallel Universe." The verses sound kind of like a Cure song (the driving beat and the bass make me think of "Disintegration") and then the chorus is a big freak-out. It has none of the elements that annoy me about them. Solid song

Yeah, that's a good one. People love to shit on the production on Californication but I don't hear anything overly wrong with it. Suits the songs fine.

I’d have to go with Gong Li

Trag back on track. 2 for 2 on Soul to Squeeze and Gong Li.

[VinylGuy]

Gong Li is really good yeah

[Farmer John]

I love Gong Li, but I kind of wish they made two separate songs out of it. Those instrumental sections are the best part and I would have loved to hear them just stick with that and build something epic out of that riff.

[VinylGuy]

by the way, Flea has a podcast and John and Anthony are guests there. Also Thundercat, Earl Sweatshirt...pretty cool guests.

He was also featured on HBO's Painting with John.

Thanks a ton for this!

Is the first note of "Soul to Squeeze" missing on anyone else's DL?

Well spotted, the source audio file was actually incomplete at the very beginning.
The archive will be updated in a few weeks, after holidays.

listened to Unlimited Love for the first time recently

great album

such good instrumentalists

and i never really gave A Keidis enough credit for his vocal style

he's a special guy

a great band

i kind of tuned out on them for years

people don't really play instruments anymore, but they do

if Pearl Jam made an album like this people would totally bug out

instead RHCP just rolls them off the line like it ain't no thang, apparently...

[tragabigzanda]

[VinylGuy]

yeah UL is awesome.

Cant wait to see these guys in november.

[Jorge]

[96583UP]

yeah UL is awesome.

Cant wait to see these guys in november.

noice

[Farmer John]

This is very enjoyable. These songs feel like they were tailor made to be video game music.

[Ello Sailor]

I'm digging "Dosed" the most.
